- 1 1/2 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
- 1 1/2 ounces dark chocolate
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 6 ounces unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 3 large pasteurized eggs tips & tricks
- 1 (9 ½-inch) prepared Chocolate Honey Graham Cracker pie crust, cooled tips & tricks
- whipped cream, for garnish tips & tricks
- shaved chocolate, for sprinkle
- raspberries, for garnish tips & tricks
Place semi-sweet & dark chocolate pieces in a double boiler, stirring occasionally until melted.
Meanwhile, in the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, combine sugar and butter. Cream the ingredients on speed 3 until fluffy, about 3 minutes; set aside.
When the chocolate is melted, pour into the butter mixture. Add vanilla and process until well mixed, stopping to scrape the sides of the bowl.
Add one egg at a time and process for 5 minutes before adding another egg which makes it creamier and lighter.
Pour the mixture into the cooled prepared pie crust, smooth out the surface using a spatula and place it on a baking sheet lined with a silicone mat to prevent it from sliding.
Transfer to the fridge to chill, about 4 hours.
Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream, sprinkle on some shaved chocolate and add a raspberry per slice.
